I have been in the college consulting industry for my entire adult life. I have sent students to Oxford, the University of Virginia (full scholarship), and Stanford Law School, among many others. As for myself: T14 law schools offered me nearly $1 million in aggregate scholarship offers. Editing is my jam. As a college admissions consultant, I have helped countless students express their narratives in compelling, relatively short essays. Moreover, I have edited millions of words at The Stanford Daily, including for a year as its head copy editor. Previously, I have worked as a copy editor for Stanford Politics Magazine and Caesura Magazine; and I have copy edited full-length books and think tank reports. I find editing both engaging and existentially meaningful.

Welcome to my profile! As a Harvard Law School graduate and former Summer Associate at Skadden, I bring a unique blend of legal and financial expertise to my coaching. I have a deep understanding of what it takes to excel in law school applications and beyond. My experience allows me to provide comprehensive guidance on personal statements, resumes, and interview preparation.

If you are: - A splitter - Below both LSAT and GPA medians - Interested in the t-14 - Interested in beyond the t-14 - Need to get off hold/waitlist - Struggling with your essays Listen up! GPA and LSAT are king - nothing else matters. This is the traditional "Reddit" wisdom that haunts every budding law school applicant. But that doesn't have to be true. You don't have to be a Rhodes or Truman Scholar, D1 athlete, or PhD. You can write your way in. I sure did. And a year later, my writing skills earned me a spot on the North Carolina Law Review, the flagship academic legal journal of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill School of Law. I beat the odds time and time again. Ever since, I've been able to help other law school applicants with borderline stats (within reason) gain acceptance into their dream law schools. Some of my clients have been admitted to schools like Columbia, UVA, Harvard (including off the waitlist), NYU, Michigan, Georgetown, Duke, and UNC-Chapel Hill. I am no stranger to admissions advising. I have been a college admissions consultant for over eight years and I have been a Senior Admissions Consultant for U.S. News CollegeAdvisor since 2021. In that world, I have also helped borderline students secure admission to Ivy League schools, T-20 schools, and Public Ivies. I have seamlessly translated what I know about undergraduate admissions to the law school admissions. You don't always have to give up on your dream law school. Even with your stats, there can be a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.

I have advised hundreds and hundreds of law school applicants over an almost twenty year period. I am an expert in law school admissions and have also published a book and a nationwide column about it. Many applicants that I have advised have been admitted to their top choice of law schools. Some of my former students have also received up to full scholarships to law school. I am also an expert on the subject of legal careers, as well as alternative legal careers. In addition I have taught several courses for students planning to apply to law school. I am a graduate of Brown University and Boston College Law School.
